1 Teaspoonful of Vanilla
Pinch of Salt

Put the milk on the stove and heat to nearly the boiling point. Whip
whites of the eggs to a stiff froth and drop them by spoonfuls into the
hot milk for a few minutes to cook. With a skimmer remove these islands
to a platte. Beat the yolks of the egg with sugar, salt and cornstarch.
Stir into the milk until it boils. Flavor and cool. Turn into a glass
dish and lay the "islands" on top of the custard. Serve cold.

2 Cupfuls of Flour
2 Teaspoonfuls of Cream of Tartar
1 Teaspoonful of Soda
1/2 Teaspoonful of Salt
1 Teaspoonful of Lard

Mix ingredients together with water until thick enough to roll. Cut into
rounds an inch thick as for biscuits. Boil one quart of huckleberries
in one-half pint of water and one-half cupful of sugar. Drop in the
dumplings. Boil for twenty minutes. Serve with cold sauce or cream and
sugar.
